I need to know how to wire 2- two channel amps to one single voice coil sub from the amp back. any special pattern of the speaker wires? I've seen a friend of mine try it without knowing wut to do and the interior lights started flashing with the music and the amps just fried. any help would be appreciated.

THanks

Why are you using (2) two channel amps to power 1 svc sub? Whats the subs rms and what are the amps rated at?

i work at a stereo shop, and you can't do it to a single voice coil sub. it will fry both amps and blow the sub. it has to do w/ the ohms(resistance) it's kind of hard to explain, but it for sure won't work

Kevin is correct. What you have probably seen before is a daisy-chain effect with the In/Out you see on some amps. This is for running the same signal from your head unit to multiple drivers without re-wiring for each driver. You are still using one amp per driver. If your amps are bridgeable, you can bridge the 2 channels into 1 to get more peak output for your SVC but make sure your driver will handle a 4/2 ohm impedance load. Alternately you can set up two drivers and load up an amp on each of them.
